Good job wise asses. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

I mean what specificaly would have bent or shifted to have caused that.

Nothing looks bent on close inspection I am wondering if anyone knows a common or likely cause.

actually it looks like your shock is bent. might be the pic, but take a look.

i saw you broke and bent stuff on your gen d thread.

is the whole rim/tire that close all around or just the spot?

psyclo 08-12-2005 01:56 PM

Ok I'm almost postive its the shock, when twist the hub like the car would when its turning it doesnt just turn on the axis like you would think, it moves a little.

Well at least I know what the problem is

Geezuschrist, what kinda reply is that?



Isn't it obvious?



Bent lower A-arm

Bent shock body

Bent hub

Bent subframe - where the lower A-arm connects to the chassis

Broken bushings - in lower A-arm to subframe

Thanks for the understanding Ted.

I know what can be damaged, I was just asking if anyone could see something obvious that I may have missed or had a similar experience as to what to look for as I didn't see anything that was damaged right away.
